Picking up a couple more shifts at work. Not sure whether I want to get a new day job just yet.
Been handing out some of the homemade kombucha that I started making, people love it so far. Some of it was at a potluck my friends hosted.
The bigger projects are dragging along slowly, but I'm making steps on getting organized. Closer to being up-to-date on paperwork than any time in the past 4 years.
How the heck do you get your booch to carbonate? Mine was always nice and tart but could never get it to fizz.
I'm still experimenting a lot. My first 2 batches ever were really fizzy, but they were in smaller containers.
I think it might have to do with whether the scoby seals to the edge of the jar. I could be wrong though.
What kind of water do you use? That's another thing I've sort of always wondered because I'm a trash human and just used tap water.
I also use tap water; maybe I'll try bottled or filtered or distilled at some point.
